For most people, getting out of bed in the morning is a bit of a struggle. Luckily, the 9 clocks below are here to help. Some wake you up with an annoyingly loud noise, while others won't shut off until you complete a task—but they all promise to get even the sleepiest sleepyhead[1]) up and moving.
Silent Alarm Clock
Do you hate the sound of your alarm clock going off[2]) at the most pleasant moment of your rest? You should try this conceptual alarm clock that wakes you up without any sound. It works like this: you wear a wireless rubber ring with an integrated vibration device that generates a tactile[3]) alarm. By shaking your hand, the snooze function is engaged. If you still feel like snoozing a little bit, it'll take more movement each successive[4]) time, leading you to get up on time for work.
Light Sleeper Alarm Clock
Doesn't a bit of sunshine wake you up more easily? The Light Sleeper is made of a pillow and a duvet[5]) that were designed to make our body clock respond to an imitation sunrise, accelerating the wake-up process. This creative alarm will make the bedding gradually begin to glow in a natural rhythm over a 15~20 minute period, so you can wake up kind of spontaneously.
Throw Alarm Clock
Every Monday morning when your alarm goes off, don't you have that impulse of throwing it across the room? Good news! This brilliant alarm clock was designed just for that! It can only be turned off by bouncing it or throwing it. Yeah, this is what we all need!
Darth Vader[6]) Alarm Clock
The Darth Vader Alarm Clock is the right one for Star Wars fans. It not only looks cool but has different functions. It displays the time in his eyes; it has AM/FM radio tuning and 3 sounds effects that are bound to wake you up.

Danger-Bomb Alarm Clock
Do you like action? Well, with the “Danger-Bomb” clock, you'll feel like James Bond since you wake up. The annoying sound of this alarm will only stop if you connect the blue, red and yellow wires in the correct order. If you fail your mission, get ready to a fake—and even more annoying—audible explosion.
Bacon Alarm Clock
Do you think a nice breakfast is a good reason to wake up early? Then the Waken' Bacon might be the right one for you. It wakes you up with the tempting aroma[7]) of bacon browning in the oven, just like the ones Mom makes on Sunday mornings. Just remember to place a frozen strip of bacon inside the night before and the next morning, 10 minutes before the desired waking time, the cooking process will start. Once the alarm goes off, you'll hear the alarm sound and not only you'll wake up but you'll have your breakfast ready!Math Hell Alarm Clock
Some of us have an automatic pilot go off when the alarm clock rings which in turn makes us simply hit the snooze button every 9 minutes for a series of 5 or 6 rings. It may work for some but more than a few end up waking up an hour later, not feeling better and worst yet … late for whatever they had to wake up to. Then the Math Hell Alarm Clock might be the solution. This is a cool alarm clock DIY project that requires you to solve Math calculation in order to turn off the ring. You could make it that five problems are shown one after the other, so luck could not save you.
Carpet Alarm Clock
Stand up to wake up! The Carpet Alarm Clock forces you to physically get up and step on it in order to turn it off. Of course, since it is technically a clock, it has a LCD screen to indicate the time.
Flying Alarm Clock
Are you such a sleepyhead that you need something really effective to wake you up? Then, meet the Blowfly alarm clock, a concept that will force you to rise in on time. When this clock hits the appointed time, the siren[8]) begins to wail[9]) and the plastic propeller[10]) goes up, up and away, carrying the siren with it. So, the the only way to stop the annoying alarm is to jump out of the bed, catch the flying object, and place it back into the clock!
對于大多數人來說,大清早從被窩里爬出來是一件有點費勁的事兒。幸運的是,以下這九款鬧鐘將會助你一臂之力。這些鬧鐘有些會發(fā)出煩人的高分貝噪音把你叫醒,而有些鬧鐘直到你完成一項任務才會停止聲響——但是它們都能保證把甚至最困的貪睡者叫起來活動。
無聲鬧鐘
你討厭鬧鐘在你睡得最香的時候發(fā)出巨響嗎?你應該試試這款概念鬧鐘,它能不發(fā)出任何聲音就把你叫醒。它是這樣做到的:你帶上一個里面安裝了集成震動裝置的無線橡膠圈,這個集成振動裝置可以發(fā)出能觸覺到的警報。你只需晃晃手,小睡功能就開啟了。如果你仍然想再睡一小會兒,每一次就要比上一次多晃一會兒,這樣就讓你能準時起床上班去。
光照鬧鐘
來點陽光是不是更容易叫醒你呢?光照鬧鐘由一個枕頭和一個羽絨被組成,它們經過設計,都能讓我們的生物鐘對模擬日出有所反應,從而加速醒來的過程。這款創(chuàng)意鬧鐘會以一種自然的節(jié)奏(15~20分鐘為一個周期)讓枕頭和被子逐漸變亮,所以你能“自然地”醒來。
欠摔鬧鐘
每個周一的早晨,當你的鬧鐘發(fā)出巨響,你難道沒有想把它扔到房間另一邊的沖動嗎?好消息!這款絕妙的鬧鐘就是為此而設計的!要想關掉這款鬧鐘,你只能摔它、扔它。是的,這正是我們都需要的!黑武士鬧鐘
黑武士鬧鐘是《星球大戰(zhàn)》粉絲們的選擇。它不僅外表酷,而且還有不同的功能。黑武士的眼睛用來顯示時間,它還有AM和FM調頻收音機,還有三個一定能叫醒你的聲道。
炸彈鬧鐘
你喜歡動作片嗎?好,有了炸彈鬧鐘,你一覺醒來,就會感覺自己像是詹姆斯·邦德一樣。那惱人的鬧鈴聲只有在你把藍、紅、黃三種顏色的導線以正確的順序連好之后才會停止。如果你沒能完成任務,就請準備好接受模擬的、甚至比鬧鈴聲更煩人的爆炸聲吧。
培根鬧鐘
你覺得一頓美味的早餐是早點起床的好理由嗎?那么這款“叫醒培根”可能適合你。它用那種在爐子上烤得焦黃的培根的誘人香味來叫醒你,就像媽媽在星期天的早晨做的那種。只要記著在前一天晚上放一條冷凍的培根進去就行,第二天早晨,在你想要的起床時間之前十分鐘,烹飪程序就會啟動。只要鬧鈴一響,你就會聽到警報聲,這樣你不僅能醒來,而且早餐也準備好了!
數學地獄鬧鐘
我們有些人身上有個“自動控制器”,鬧鐘一響,它就讓我們按下小睡模式的按鈕,每隔九分鐘一次,一共要響五六次。這對有些人有效,但是很多人最終會在一小時之后才起床,而且還沒感覺好點,更糟的是無論起床后原本要去干什么事兒都已經遲了。那這款數字地獄鬧鐘或許可以解決這個問題。這是一款很酷的DIY鬧鐘,你必須算對了數學題才能把鬧鈴聲關了。你可以設定鬧鐘連出五道題,這樣運氣就幫不了你了。
地毯鬧鐘
站起來才能醒!這款地毯鬧鐘會強迫你確實從床上起來,踩到地毯上以便關閉鬧鈴。當然了,既然它從技術上講終究是個鬧鐘,所以它還有一個顯示時間的LCD顯示屏。
飛行鬧鐘
你是不是一個超級貪睡蟲,需要某個真的很管用的東西來叫你起床呢?那么,就來見識一下這款綠頭蒼蠅鬧鐘吧。它是一款能強迫你準時起床的概念鐘。當鬧鐘到了設定的時間時,警報器就開始長鳴,塑料螺旋槳飛起來,帶著警報器越飛越高,飛走了。所以,能阻止這惱人鈴聲的方法就是你從床上跳起來,抓到那個飛行物,把它按回鬧鐘里去。
